Nintendo Revolution Price Confirmed

Posted Dec 30, 2005, 8:42 AM ET

Nintendo President Satoru Iwata has confirmed that the new upcoming Nintendo Revolution will cost under $299.

Nintendo Satoru Iwata has priced the Nintendo Revolution to $299, if not less. This is very interesting since its the same price as the low-end "standard" model for a
Microsoft Xbox 360. In other words, you get the full Nintendo Revolution for the same price as Xbox 360 standard.

Over the past few weeks, rumours were spreading about how Nintendo will price the Revolution next-generation video game console. It is clear that Nintendo wants a different price than Sony PS3 and Xbox 360.

Now, about those Nintendo Revolution specs. Nintendo is still keeping a tight lip on their technologies, and no tech details have been announced yet. While some members of the media have speculated and tried to "guess" what the specs are, there hasn't been any formal release or data sheet from Nintendo.

Nintendo Revolution is expected to launch in May 2006, prior to E3 in Los Angeles. GameSHOUT will be there and we'll be hosting a live Revolution event that can be seen by both streaming video and audio from GameSHOUT Radio.

They better quit talking about the console and get straight to the game support and the game release schedules or they aren't gonna do shit in console sales after what happened with the GC.
